Deja vu all over again? 'It was an accident,' says Earnhardt Jr.

It looked to me that L'il 3 had locked up the brakes (ya all saw the smoke right?) BEFORE contact was made - said contact was minimal in your average fender bender while changing lanes at 30MPH has completely different consequences at 120MPH (or whatever), but THAT'S why they call them accidents!

Everybody who disagrees with me - raise your hands... come on, you've never been this shy before!

Yes he locked up the brakes, and I believe he didnt do it on purpose, because even thou I would have loved to see him do it on purpose that is not Jr's style.

His old man wouldn't have locked up his brakes.
Class act on Jr's part.

NO I dont think most would have done what Jr did. And even thou I would love to see Jr give some payback its just not Jr at all.

On purpose or not, still absolutely enjoyable. I would have preferred to hear him say he tried to rough him up but either way it was great.

Oh man!

I try to get somebody to DISAGREE with me today, and y'all won't - I tried to be nice yesterday, and I got sh!t on for it! What gives?

This is the start of the end of Dale's driving career. People will start getting sick of Dale trying to be like his buddy Kyle.

It's funny that Jr. now looks up to Kyle Busch. Dale's must dream about becoming a third Busch brother. He's leaving family members all the time so that could happen. Sign a few papers and it could all be legal. Weicome Dale Busch.

Lets see... Hum, maybe payback time from all the drivers? 1st CE, now Jr... only 40 drivers left that owe KB a returned favor yet only 10 races left.

Way to go Jr!!

I had to replay it over and over and over again just to see the entire incendent as I was laughing my head off and missed part of it.

YOu forgot JPM. He gave it to Kyle. Jr.was the gentleman as ever. Did you see Kyles interview? He didn't say a word about JR.

First off, I have no problem with what happened.

I saw it as a racing deal, not payback.

I would love to know why you think EVERY driver has a problem with KB?

You've created something that isn't there.

I think it's Jr. nation who has the problem.

So you must live your life as "eye for an eye"?

Oh, you can't count JPM's as a real payback. JPM STILL owes him big time. Maybe, this week :)

There wasn't really anything KB could say but you know Jr was really grinning on the inside when they asked him about it.

Its not a big secret that alot of drivers do not like kyle. he has made enemys in the cup,nationwide and Truck series. Especially in the Truck races I dont know if you watch many races other than the cup but hell Kyle has pissed alot of people off.
